About the Item

1940s Danish easy chair reupholstered in premium long haired Icelandic sheepskin with original kobber springs and historical refinish. A masterpiece from the realm of mid-century Danish furniture design. Crafted by a skilled Danish cabinet maker, this chair stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and design principles of the era. One of the standout features of this lounge chair is its sculpted and elegant stained beech armrests. The use of beech, a durable and beautifully grained wood, not only adds visual appeal but also speaks to the Danish commitment to quality materials. The tapered design of the armrests and front legs contributes to the chair's overall aesthetic, showcasing a harmonious blend of form and function. What sets this particular 1940s Lounge Chair apart is its reupholstery in long-haired Icelandic sheepskin. This choice of material adds a touch of luxury and warmth to the chair. The long-haired sheepskin not only enhances the visual appeal but also provides a plush and comfortable seating experience. The juxtaposition of the sleek, sculpted wood with the soft, natural sheepskin creates a tactile and inviting piece of furniture.
